Jairo (sicario)

Jairo (died December 1992) was a sicario of the Medellin Cartel. He was one of Pablo Escobar's top hitmen, and he cared for his mother in Medellin, as he was her only son and the only person who could make money for her. In December 1992, DEA agent Javier Pena tipped off Don Berna about Jairo's planned visit to his mother in Medellin, so Los Pepes entered the apartment and kidnapped Jairo. They later murdered him and dumped him below a bridge with a sign saying "In the defense of the Colombian peope", making a gruesome display of him.
